Welcome to the final edition of the Branded Sports NFL Divisional Power Rankings by position groups.
Here are each Divisional Position Group Rankings:
After completing each ranking I have put together a final ranking report. Below you will see a summary of each division. Where they ranked out of 8 for each position group. What their average offensive ranking is. What their average defensive ranking is. What their overall average ranking is. And… Each division’s “score” based of their rankings.
Scoring System:
1X8 I 2X7 3X6 I 4X5 I 5X4 I 6X3 I 7X2 I 8X1
So if a team finished one ranking as the top division (#1) that will be worth 8 points. If they finished second (#2) that is worth 7 points, and so on. The team with the highest points is the top dog.
The lower the average and higher the score the better.
